Fact Sheet: Catholic Social Teaching and the Wealth Gap

In the body of documents that make
up Catholic Social Teaching, Catholic leaders have discussed many of the themes
and issues we have been exploring in the Mind the Gap! campaign.

This fact
sheet[2] includes quotations from some of those documents on themes such as taxes[3],
the racial
wealth gap[4] and unions[5].
The documents included are from both the United States Conference of Catholic
Bishops, Pope Benedict XVI and past popes. Together, they describe a hope for a
better world, with greater equality, peace and justice for everyone.
